Report

EDINBURGH’S Sam Masters won the Championship League Riders’ Championship at Poole – eleven years after his last triumph in the event.

Masters emerged largely unscathed from a heavy pile-up in the first staging of the Final, which also involved Ryan Douglas of Scunthorpe who was able to walk away but could not take his place in the re-run.

Masters then got the better of home man Danny King and Redcar’s Lewis Kerr to take the title.

He said: “It was adrenaline that got me through it all. I have to thank my boys back in the pits who did an awesome job of getting the bike together. It was a bit twisted and needed some work done to it.

“I hope that Dougie is going to be okay. We are team-mates at Wolverhampton and it was a pretty high-speed crash we had.

“I was riding through the pain-barrier all night and that is why I knew I needed to make the starts. I just don’t have the strength to chase from the back and so was pleased to make the start in that Final.

“It’s nice to have won this for the second time, the last time I wasn’t fancied at all for it and now I have won one by being amongst the favourites.”
